Yes, you can rent a car with your Mercury Credit Card. The card is issued on the Mastercard network, so it is accepted almost everywhere credit cards can be used as a payment method, including car rental agencies. Please note that the card does not offer a rental car insurance benefit at the time.
Before renting a car with your Mercury Credit Card, make sure that you have enough available credit on the card. Car rental companies usually put a hold on your credit line in the amount of the rental, plus the security deposit, until you return the car. Such a transaction could raise your credit utilization ratio, which will hurt your credit score.
